i’ve moved on to cspan. so very quiet.
Several million bucks, collected in $40 and $50 increments from private donors.
I just got a phone call from one of the other organizers I was with in Indiana. It’s very peaceful, but VERY packed. They can’t even get to their assigned seats (which, if memory serves me right, are two sections back from the stage, just off of First Street).
Dick Cheney has finally completed his transformation into Mr. Potter.
What an amazing sight that mall is!
Heh. That site is currently down.
Apparently the gift was a pen and a journal, so she can start working on her memoirs.
This cutaway graphic, from a paper in the UK (it calls the trunk a “boot” ha), lists the price at £300,000. According to Google, that’s $416,610.
I was going to watch at work, but three flakes of snow fell so I’m watching MSNBC at home.
I cannot believe the huge mass of humanity in D.C. today.
I looked that up once, out of interest. The price hasn’t changed much from what I remember it being: a quite safe bulletproof SUV is under $200,000.
I’m wondering if I do want to watch this with commentary after all, but Hulu, my favorite streaming site, is showing Fox News’s and I honestly don’t care what anyone on there has to say (though watching the inauguration on Fox makes for some entertaining cognitive dissonance). The Beeb keeps saying they’ll be doing a webcast but I can’t find a link to it.
Is it? I’m watching right now. Keep trying, maybe.
My husband says it’s a Transformer. At the right moment, it will convert into a rocket-launching robot. Cheney-Bot will not let power go so easily. . .
Yeah…crap. Wish I had the money to go.
Wow, Mondale is still alive? I would have lost that bet.
Death Pool?
Election day had CNN with holographic congress and “beamed in” reporters. Now they’re taking pictures from space.
i know! i was surprized to see him and his wife as well. interesting hat on mrs. mondale.
cnn is gonna show a shot from space. should be fun.
That’s funny - that’s exactly what the “main wife” of the imprisoned polygamous cult leader is doing on Big Love this season…hmmm…
Where are Sasha and Malia?
And where is Rahm Emmanuel? I bet he kicked Cheney out of his bunker…
Dude, Old Man Bush looks badass. That’s a nice scarf/coat/shirt combo.
Wow…George HW Bush and Barbara are wearing conspicuously royal purple scarves today…
